IDC Research (IDC), a global leader in technology intelligence for more than 60 years, worked with Anthropic to bring IDC Quanta into Claude, available to IDC customers today. IDC Quanta gives customers access to IDC’s trusted and validated forecasts, market data, research, and more, and now, they can ask questions in Claude to get answers enriched with IDC’s insights in minutes. IDC has also rolled Claude out across the company, where teams use it every day.

Applying market research has traditionally meant reading through long reports to get to the answers a customer needs, such as a vendor shortlist or a competitive brief. Now, an IDC customer describes the market, strategy, or purchase they're working on, and the IDC Quanta MCP connector for Claude returns finished analysis built on IDC's trusted forecasts and data.
